Can you buy a replacement blender lid hole filler thingie?

[Patchoulia]

My blender-lid-hole-filler-thingie seems to have disappeared.

Yeah, don't ask--no idea how that could have occurred.

Can you buy a replacement?

I tried to Google blender-lid-hole-filler-thingie and got no results--funny that.

Try going to your local Cash Converters and buying a whole blender of a similar model; if you can get a really beat-up (maybe even non-functional) one, so much the better. Then turf the blendy bits, and just use the lid.

In a pinch, take a plastic lid (from a Tupperware container, maybe, or something similar), place it on top, and hold it down with your hand.

Aloha,

Brad

Valu Village or Goodwill might have even cheaper blenders that cash converters....

Or just cover the hole with duct tape.

My favourite part of your response is the use of my new favourite phrase: Blendy Bits

I haven't seen a Cash Converters in years in Toronto, but I'll give it a shot--thanks!

How old is the blender? If it's relativily new, just email the maker of the blender, tell them how much you love thier products, I guarantee, you'll get a new one...I did the same thing for a new blade on mine.

Excellent tip--and I wouldn't be lying. I do love the blender. It's the closest to a food processor I've ever encountered in blender form.

I've also decided that "turf the blendy bits" is going to be a GREAT new catch-phrase.

A prize will be sent to the skank who comes up with the best meaning of the phrase.

not sure if its an Osterizer blender, or something similar, but you can just screw a regular old mason jar onto the blade assembly, the little black thing that the blades sit in, usually on older blenders, theyre threaded for the glass to screw on, and jars screw right on there. little known fact, except in mycology circles

mason jar margeritas anyone?

Sounds like a recipe for a kitchen covered in margaritas...at least if I attempted it...

"turf the blendy bits" - Unanimously terminate the jobs and positions of female staff members of mixed race?

[bONES]

stuff an old sock of Bashers in there

[Tooly]

actually they screw on nice and tight, a quart jar is almost as big as a blender container

turf the blendy bits-> to sod over a shitty lawn with brown spots and crabgrass spots; to re-sod over a lawn of mixed-race

[snarfmaster C]

i don't know about your set up, but my blender never even splashes that high.

i'd be one to use my hand. or face.

[Patchoulia]

Excellent entries so far...

A blender is not a vibrator.

Yeah, you only make that mistake ONCE....

[grateful_dave]

duct tape!

Took me twice. The first time was groovy. The second, about 2 minutes in, a loose flap of my sphincter got caught in the motor. Felt like I was shitting razor blades again.
